Importance of Buying American Products

Importance of Buying American Products

Over
the last decade, the American economy hasn’t been going on the path that we’ve
all wanted and just now we are on the road to recovery. Since Congress is going
to keep continuing their bipartisan bickering as Americans we must act. As
Americans we want things to get done quickly and efficiently and completely
being reliant on the US
legislature is not the way to go. In order to solve our economic problems we
must buy American made products to boost the US
economy. These are the reasons why all of us should be buying products made in
the USA rather
than the ones’ that come from overseas.

America
is one of the few countries working on an alternative energy program. Not
only will this reduce pollution but it will also reduce prices over time
because the need for oil will decrease.

The
amount of time it will take to pay off the national debt will significantly
decrease. Currently, the average American is responsible for $47,000 of our National debt. This can easily be
changed by buying American made products.

Create
more jobs in the USA
which will not only make it easier for you to get a job but for future
generations and your family members.

Most
of the jobs that overseas don’t come back; therefore it’s best to
start now so we can have job growth rather than loss.

Products
made in foreign nations do not have the same safety standards we do.
Sometimes toys and other products shipped to the USA
may have dangerous levels of lead in them. A product made in America
would not have this happen because of the safety standards and consumer
protection laws.

Boosts
the American economy and gives investors more reason and confidence to put
their money into America.

Products
made over seas pollute the environment using dangerous processes. The same
cannot be said about what is made in America.

No
minimum wage and less worker safety laws in other countries.

If the
economy was booming, the value of the dollar would significantly increase
over time.

Companies
would have more money to build infrastructure which would leave room for
more jobs.

What
is known as the domino effect will happen. This starts with people buying
American made products, which boosts the economy, and in turn makes wages
higher. This allows citizens to spend more money on hopefully another
batch of American goods and the cycle just keeps continuing.
